MEXICAN SCENERY.

Region Where One Can Find Perpetual
summer and Eternal SNOW.
General jackson, ex-Minister TO Mex.
leo. says: 1.-THE scenery of Mexico ex-
ceeds any thing in the world that has
ever come under my observation, either
on this continent or in Europe. The
City Of Mexico is 7,4OO feet above the
level of the sea. 1t is in what 10 called
the cold country. Next to it toward
the Gulf. is the temperate country, and
from there one passes into the hot coun-
try. The country about Jalapa was
pronounced BY Humboldt the garden
spot of the world. 1t is distinguished
from all other grand and beautiful
scenery in the world BY the fact that at
the foot of Mount Orizava there reigns
perpetual summer. while the mountain
itself rises into the region of eternal
snow. I have seen the mountains Of
Switzerland. but l never saw one that l
thought comparable in grandeur and
beauty to Orizava Ihave watched upon
an orange tree the development of the
fruit from the bud, through the bios
som, to the ripe orange, there in the
very sight Of the snow-covered L.Sun-
tains. have drunk ice-water flowing
from Orizava. and Ut the same time had
in reach splendid ripe pineapples. ~

dresses of white serge and similar goods
The better qualities are lined with satin.
and some of the newest are fastened
with two buckles and narrow straps.
New woolens are in pretty arabesque
patterns in camaieu shades over darker
ground. The skirts are arranged in Sc
ries of small plaits, alternating with
large single ones. except at the back
width. which is slightly draped into .
puff. On the left side Of this puff the
plaitS are caught up with long loops
and ends of ribbon; this shows the un-
derskirt, which is of plain silk or CASH
mere. with several rows of velvet or
braid round the bottom and q narrow
fluting showing just beyond the edge.
The fronts are plated and crossed over.
coming down into point little below
the waist line; the back is notched out
and forms small basque. Coat sleeves
with plated cuffs.
Feather trimming. such rs Is used for
wraps. is used in facings and bindings
for bonnets and hats. Dressy bOnnets
of open-mcshed wire netting strung
with beads will be worn until very late
in the season. and with lace dresses aud
lace-trimmed toilets throughout the
winter; lined, of course, with suitable
material rs the season advances.
Feather and bead coronets are popular.
and tiny feather pOmpons of graduated
sizes are set around the brims of bon
nets Bead trimmings of all sorts, bead
birds, aigrettes, leaves. wheat ears.
balls Of wirc-strung jet, and every
imaginable dispos' on Of beads will be
used in winter millinery. Bristling
loops of jet beads strung on wire are
thickly set over the entire fronts Of
some dressy bonncts.
Hats are Of two very distinct shapes,
the large chapeau Of velvet with turned
up brim. trimmed in all cOlors with
long ostrich feathers twisted together
and falling down at the back, comes
first: then there is the pretty. plainly
trimmed felt hat with plain flat edge.
Such hats are often turned up suddenly
Just in the middle in front. and others
are put toward the back of the head, or
q little on one side. Felt shapes. like
toques. are set firm apd low over the
forehead. Three forils dispute the
palm and these are: The Spanish. COM

NEW YORK STYLES.


Suggestions for Ladies' Who Would Dress
Well aad Fashionably.
Newmarkets show few changes ex-
cept the almost universal addition Of .
cape. A few hoods are seen, but the
plain coachman's cape 10 preferred.
Nearly all fine garments are lined
throughout with satin or twllled silk.
and the general finish is similar to that
on mems light overcoats. But few
double-breated long garments are seen
in the more expensive styles.
Jerseys are in high favor and are
brought out in very desirable styles.
Some new patterns are covered with irri-
descent beads and bra;ding. All fine
JERSEYS are now cut like dress waists.
are whaleboned in all the seams and
have an inside belt A perfectly fitted
plain corset cover of linen or coutille is
worn by many ladies under the jersey
and adds much 10 the style of the gar
ment
The Souvarof jacket is . new model
much m vogue. 1t fastens with one
button only at the neck, and IL rounded
of over the hips. remaining open all
the way down over . plastr0n or chemi-
sette. At the back It forms . small
basaue arranged in hollow plaits; it is
edged al round with fancy galloon or
embroidery. The same trimming is
put on over the sleeve from the shoulder
to the wrist and round the lower edge;
it is plain coatsleeve.
Belts Of ivory leather. which have
raised figures in the color of old ivory on
. gray ground. are chosen for use with
gray costumes and . similar style with
the pattern on brown ground 10 worn
with brown dresses. White undressed
kid belts. delicate and lovely to look 1t.
are in high favor Sor use With mouse
